Slide The City All Set To Slide Its Way Back To The Klang Valley!!

2:16 PM

Slide the City Malaysia has officially launched their
month-long Slip n’ Slide and it will be happening every weekend on Fridays (5pm-12am),
Saturdays and Sundays (9am-12am) from September 30th - October 29th, 2017 at Setia City
Convention Centre in Setia Alam.

Slide the City is a global phenomenon that brings a gigantic slip n’ slide onto city streets and
has invaded major cities such as United States, Columbia, Canada, United Kingdom, Korea,
Japan, Brunei, Hong Kong, Macau, China, Taiwan and many more. Monkey Theory Sdn. Bhd.
first brought the iconic slide to Malaysia in December 2015 and has since travelled across
Malaysia and landed in states such as Penang, Melaka, Kuantan and Johor Bahru.

“We heard what our fans had to say and we are now extending the sliding days from only one
weekend to a month long event! We want everyone to have the opportunity to experience the
slide at least once in their lives! So, just put on your sunscreens and grab your best summer
outfit and speed down this gigantic slip n’ slide for a family fun day in the sun” said Mr Leong
Delon, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Monkey Theory Sdn. Bhd., the organisers of
Slide the City Malaysia.

Although designed to be a fun family-oriented event within a carnival-like atmosphere, Slide
the City Malaysia also champions a more serious, compassionate cause. A portion of the sales
proceeds will be channelled towards the National Kidney Foundation of Malaysia (NKF
Malaysia) in support of patients suffering from kidney disease. Slide the City Malaysia also
aims to raise awareness of obesity, targeting a healthy lifestyle in a fun and engaging event in
which the whole family can participate.

Besides experiencing the premium slide, visitors will also get to participate in the carnival-like
atmosphere with many other activities which will take place simultaneously. The event will
feature live music, and carnival games such as the Rodeo Bull, Dunking Game, Bungee Run,
and Gladiator Joust. There will also be a host of other activities set to offer fun for the whole
family, and visitors will also be invited to partake in the many food offerings of over 15 food
trucks in presence.

“Slide the City is also proud to partner with Wahoo Events for their Shark Savers campaign.
This is a dear cause to us as we pledge to say NO to the consumption of shark fins. As
organisers of Slide the City, not only are we committed to this campaign, we are also firm
believers that as responsible citizens of the world, we should do our part in helping spread
awareness to preserve our natural resources for future generations. In relation to this, we
would also like to encourage everyone to pledge for this cause and say NO to shark fins and
any shark related products sold in the market.” Delon continues.

Regular and VIP tickets each are priced from as low as RM29 and RM86. Tickets can also be
bought online at www.slidethecity.asia and onsite on event day. They will also be available at
selected 7-Eleven stores in Penang Island, Selangor and within the Klang Valley starting from
the 3rd week of September 2017 onwards.
